I took a chance and looked at the image. Not a good idea to send or open.

There is a button on the monitor to reset the gun; may be on the right end of your
buttons.

Have you changed your resolution by any chance?

Do you have proper protection..

Remove any 'Auto-hide' option for the Windows taskbar and while the
window is maximized, resize the taskbar then return it to the desired
size. This is to try to make Windows re-calculate the window size and
boundaries.

If no joy, run regedit and remove these registry key values:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Main\window_placement

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Desktop\OldWorkAreas\OldWorkAreaRects

Then reboot.
